7.JP 1984 7" Blue Monday (Factory/Nippon Columbia TD-1098) [promo]4:09 Blue Monday 4:09 Confusion 25 copies ($???)

-About $250 on a Yahoo auctions Japan a couple of years ago (I live in Japan). Never ever thought I'd find it.

Ok. That edit on that Japanese 7inch is a unique edit, not the fade out version from the Polish 7inch.

It is different.

Get the low-quality MP3 from the FTP server, and find out by yourself.

That low quality version that had been now doing the internet rounds for years was actually encoded by myself, as that's all the quality I was sort of "authorized" for unleashing. Sorry for that.

Can someone please tell me how I go about "getting it from the FTP server"?

Cheers,

The smart money says with five seconds to spare.

I can only assume Mr Sultan already has one of the 29 other copies in circulation, still no bids ...

Originally posted by Al Jarvis Still no bids? Wonder what time that Auction Sentry's gonna kick in? :D

To have opened the bidding that high, the seller must have known there was a crazy mofo out there willing to bid $790

Yep, and guess who's won it @ $790? Heeeeeere's ...... David!

I hope I will visit his museum someday

Not jealous, I didn't mean much, it's just that we all know who will win it, so there is no suspense :D

it's so easy to win with a software witch do it for you 5 sec. before the end of auction... I lost TF87 qwest CD Promo like that

Well, it comes down to how much you are willing to pay for an item. If you establish a max-price, even the best software in the world won't beat it unless the software-user enters a higher price. Then of course, the annoying part if another user is willing to pay your price + 1 dollar...

There are some non-price-conscious bidders on eBay, it is very hard to win against them. But that is the nature of the medium. Do not despair, this is the third time I've seen/heard the single for sale. The only item that I have known to be for sale, and that I have never been able to get is the Hurt/Obercorn misspress. I still kick myself for it today... :(

Next time, the promo single is mine.

At least now that Mister $ultan has almost completed his collection, us mere mortals might get a look in, hopefully he doesn`t decide to double up.... unfortunately he has been doing that as well

sniping software is irrelevant if you're prepared to pay far more than anyone else for items, and judging by the world in motion site it looks like he already has one, scans have been up for ages in the discography

Having a picture copied off the internet does not confirm actual ownership.

People that are prepared to pay what it takes for an item are not the problem in my eyes.

It's the last second spoilt brat snatch that gets on my tits. If an individual is sufficiently interested in an item then they should have the courage to register a bid to be shot at. And if it also means that the individual has to be online in the middle of the night when the auction ends, then they should be prepared to do that as well.

If you have another look at the WIM discography the releases that MR$s have are in bold type the ones he doesnt are not.

The scans were those I provided him.

Along with a copy of the edit on tape back in 1997 I got photocopies of the sleeves (with a couple more from other releases).

I brought the photocopies along with me as we scheduled to meet (me & David) back in 1999 while I was in Miami.

I saw a bit of his collection + some (odd) videos. "World" live anyone ?

(He even took me with him for his flight lesson - and I got to cross Florida in a small 4 seat airplane - I was stunned !!!)

He's the richest New Order's fan I ever met This is why he's called Sultan

last second bidding is a necessity since I know from experience that nobody ever puts in their maximum amount first time, they always come back after being outbid thereby pushing the price upwards. now if that didn't happen then the whole sniping thing wouldn't have emerged.

yep, mega rare. you cant blame the sultan of bling ,surely if 99% of us had the money we would want it also! different people have their favorite rarity,mine is the run 2 7" promo,of which incidently i have just bought for a song!!!!!!!!! steve smith.barnsleyfc.co.uk
